Guardian – “Pirated copies of Dan Brown’s new Robert Langdon thriller The Lost Symbol have started appearing across the internet only a day after the book was published. The book’s UK publisher Transworld said it was aware of the transgressions and was taking action to have the illegal downloads removed. “It is available on a number of pirate sites,” said associate publicity director Alison Barrow, who added that the publisher was asking websites to take down digital copies of the book. “We are not being complacent about this,” she said. “It’s only the US version so far.”
